Abstract
A method and system of generating performance metrics for network traffic being transferred in and out of an intranet. Network traffic is non-intrusively measured from a server to client perspective within periodic measurement time intervals. The network traffic is analyzed based on each connection made from a server to a client and the measurement time interval. Using the network traffic analyzed, performance metrics are generated. Accumulated performance metrics are also generated when a connection extends beyond a measurement time interval.
